A KIND OF MERCY

Alessandra wakes in her darkroom with days missing from her memory. Her phone is gone. Her car has vanished. And the people of Portomurella seem unable to see or hear her.

Then she meets Lorenzo. He can see her. He can hear her. And whatever has happened to Alessandra appears to have happened to him too.

As roads fold back on themselves and ordinary rules begin to fail, Alessandra turns to the one thing she has always trusted: evidence. But the photographs from her final assignment contain impossible gaps — blank frames where images should be — and the fragments that begin to emerge point towards a truth she may already have been trying to expose.

With Francesca following the evidence and Lorenzo beside her, Alessandra must reconstruct what happened before the missing days — without letting fear become proof, or memory become something someone else gets to define.

Atmospheric, haunting and emotionally charged, A KIND OF MERCY is a spellbinding novel of love, memory, coercion and the dangerous difference between what we fear and what we can prove.

A novel of mystery, memory and mercy.
